The steroid era in Major League Baseball started in the 1990s, and it looks like it still has not gone away completely. The ex-Yankee Robinson Can? shared his feelings over his friend, Fernando Tatis Jr, getting suspended from the MLB.?

The duo has been friends, and their friendship was well known much before Padres signed Can?.?

Can? got signed by the San Diego Padres on a contract basis in May 2022 and is currently a free agent.

Fernando Tatis Jr. tested positive for PED usage

Tatis Jr made his MLB debut with the San Diego Padres in 2020 and won the Silver Slugger Award the same year. He became an All-Star a year later. The 23-year-old is the son of former MLB player Fernando Tatis Sr.

His father is one of the known and great players of Major League Baseball.?

Being one of the brightest young stars of Major League Baseball testing positive for the usage of Performance Enhancing Drugs was a disappointment for many. This included his friend and mentor, Robinson Can?.?

After getting tested positive for PEDs usage, Tatis got suspended from playing 80 games. His friend and mentor, Robinson Can?, shared his feelings in a tweet about being heartbroken by what happened.?

It is saddening to see such a bright player getting suspended from the game he was great at and had just begun to play.?

Robinson Can? is the godfather of Tatis

Robinson is a free agent of MLB. He was also suspended from playing after he also tested for the usage of PEDs. Since then, he has apologized to his team, fans, and everyone else for the same.?

Robinson Can? is an eight-time MLB All-Star, helped his team win a World Series in 2009, and has many awards for his name.

Fate took a wrong turn for him, but he was a great and valuable player in Major League Baseball.?

Tatis Jr was just one of those people who looked up to Can? while growing up. He also said, “One guy that I call my ?Godfather? in baseball is Robinson Cano. That?s the mind that I?ve picked the most. He knows a lot about hitting, a lot about baseball, and how to slow down the game. Having the chance to learn from a guy like that is huge.?

After what just happened, it can’t be said if Tatis Jr will stay in the Padres or get traded after his suspension of 80 games ends.?
